Pain might mean gain for aneurysm repair

Published: March, 2014

Surgery to repair an abdominal aortic aneurysm is harder on the
body than an inside-the-aorta approach, but it's also more
durable.

Imagine, for a minute, you have a circulation problem that needs
fixing. Your doctor offers two choices. One is major surgery with
at least a week-long hospital stay and at least two months of
recovery. The other is a procedure done without surgery that will
have you out of the hospital in a few days and back on your feet
in a week or so. No contest, right?

Daily Health Tip

Create a meditation spot

Meditation relieves anxiety, pain, and depression by reducing the amount of the stress hormone cortisol in your bloodstream. Add meditation into your day by setting aside a time and place devoted to deep breathing and focus. Meditating a few minutes a day for a week or two can improve mood and stress levels.
